and check out what this iraqi first lieutenant admitted to us. with the american combat troops leaving can the iraqi army keep the peace here? "to be honest," he says, "we need a couple more years." t minus three days until the end of combat and i'm out on the streets of baghdad. to be fair, it's glaringly obvious that iraqi troops who have been in charge here for months are doing a pretty good job keeping the peace. now families are out having ice cream and fancy new restaurants are opening up. although they will pat you down for weapons before you can get a table. yet so many of the iraqis we meet are deeply, darkly pessimistic. including this off-duty cop. even though you are a police officer, you don't think the iraqi forces can keep this country safe without the americans here anymore? >> yes, i don't think so. we don't have enough weapons, we are not ready for this mission. >> reporter: we're frequently asked by complete strangers if we can help them leave this country and come to america. why do you want to leave here? >> it's no good. >>

what is it telling us? >> this study focused on women with the brc mutation, a human gene when it's abnormal or mutated it has been linked to about 10% of hereditary breast cancer and 9% of ovarian cancer. this study was ground-breaking because it was the first one that showed it saved lives. it looked at 2500 women over four countries, followed them for an average of four years. and found that those with the brca mutation who had this risk-reducing surgery decreased their risk of dying of cancer by 70% to 80%. >> those numbers are amazing. anyone who's been touched by cancer is immediately going to sit up and look at that. but this is, as you mentioned, a high-risk surgery. talk to us, what are we talking about specifically when it comes to the surgery? >> right. when you talk about preventive surgery or risk-reducing surgery, you have to take into account not just the risks of the procedure but the age of the patient, have they had children? do they want future children? and also what are the consequences
